One of the hardest things to do in life is to put your trust completely into someone else. Humans tend to feel that if they are not enough for themselves how could another person fill that gap and make them enough? Christians tend to do this with God. God will call us to do a task that seems too difficult, and Christians tend to believe that they are in it on their own. Moses does just that in Exodus 3:10 though Exodus 4:17. In this passage, Moses could only think about his attributes that would cause him to fail. Moses would have failed if it was just him, but he was never alone. God was with him and would be with him during the task at hand. Christians by ourselves are not enough, but God can make us enough.

This passage starts with Moses standing on holy ground with the burning bush before him. God called out to him and told him His plan to deliver the children of Israel. The first thing that Moses asks is who am I to do this great thing? Then God reassures him and tells him that He will be with him. After God says this, Moses asks what he should call God. Then God says “I AM WHO I AM” and tells Moses to call him I AM and to tell the Israelite’s that He will deliver them to the land of milk and honey. He also tells Moses that it will not be easy and the king of Egypt will deny them and God will have to work miracles. Then Moses, still not being confident enough, asks what happens if they still will not believe me? At this point God must have known that he had to give Moses a sign of how powerful He truly was so He turned Moses’s staff into a serpent and made Moses’s hand leprous and healed him again. Even after all of this, Moses says that he is just not a good enough speaker so he cannot do it. So God reminded him of what he said before about God speaking through him. Then Moses says you just have to find someone else because I just cannot do it. At this point God has had it and gets a little angry, and then he reminds Moses of Aaron and says that he can do all the speaking. Finally Moses stops arguing with God and accepts his task.

If there is anyone that humans can put their trust in, it is God. He has always been and he will always be. Just by that fact we can see that He is the most committed of anyone. Christians have been called according to his purpose and he has a reason for it. Apart from him, we are not strong enough to accomplish his will, but with him we can do anything. All that Christians can see when trying to do what God wants them to do is how everything will go wrong because of their faults. Without God all of those things will go wrong, but with him they will be no problem at all. Christians are inadequate, but with Him we can overcome our inadequacies
